Remove the entire staminal column from the pollen parent (painted Lady) and completely cover the red stigma pads with the ripe pollen.The more completely you cover the pads with pollen the more likely you will get fertile seeds.
Note the staminal column at the top of this pic being used to dust the pollen to the seed parent flower.
